Tie goes to the runner.

[tk13]

A bit strange this year. I called Pittsburgh getting the Saturday night game... but both AFC games are on the same day. The usually mix it up.

Guess it doesn't matter since ESPN has one game and NBC has another.

[GoShox]

Let's do this

[JoeyChuckles]

This thread wins due to properly translated KC time.

[Chiefs4TheWin]

This is such a gift!! Then depending on the outcome, a huge terrible curse. Either way I will be drunk. save me from myself please!

10:35 if you ask me :P

[Saccopoo]

Military central time.

[B2chiefsfan]

They're saying it's on ABC/ESPN...

[teedubya]

Fuck Yeah. Let's win a fucking playoff game while there is still magic over Truman Sports Complex. LOL

[ChiefsCountry]

The reason behind ESPN/ABC
http://espnmediazone.com/us/press-releases/2015/05/nfl-wild-card-playoff-game-will-return-espn-simulcast-first-time-abc/

It will be the MNF crew just simulcast on ABC.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

So fucking lame. So NOW they decide to play both conferences the same day.

[Vietnam58]

yesssssssssss.. . . .now i dont have to call in sick to work!!!

Im in vietnam so ill be drinking and watching Sunday morning at 4am

[2bikemike]

Seems odd that both AFC games are Saturday and both NFC games are Sunday. I don't recall that from previous years, maybe it has been that way before.

[journeyscarab]

LOL!

[tk13]

It hasn't. But it doesn't matter this year because all four games are on different channels. Before the NFC was on FOX and CBS had the AFC. They mixed them up so all the games weren't on the same channel on the same day.

Now NBC & ESPN have 1st round games, so it doesn't matter. If the Chiefs game runs long on ESPN, it's not going to cut into the 2nd game on CBS.

[hometeam]

ill be at work this is BS :(

[Stad]

Perfect. Just the time i wanted it at.

[hometeam]

worst time ever

[TigeRRUppeRRcut]

Pain train comin their way

[Vietnam58]

if we win we go to Denver or NE?

anyone know the scenarios?

[pugsnotdrugs19]

It also helps having the AFC games on the same days as it gives no advantage to teams that would play on Sunday instead of Saturday....


Let's goooo

[tk13]

Also, brutal time for the Seahawks too. They have to play at 10AM their time. And the forecast right now for Minneapolis is for it to be brutally cold on Sunday.

[mr. tegu]

This is the time I was hoping for.

[TLO]

10:35 if you ask me :P

retkim? damn near killed 'em!

[tk13]

Also, brutal time for the Seahawks too. They have to play at 10AM their time. And the forecast right now for Minneapolis is for it to be brutally cold on Sunday.

And if the Seahawks manage to win that game, they have to turn around and fly across the country to play 10AM the next week at Carolina. If they win the NFC again they'll have earned it.

[Toby Waller]

LOL

[mr. tegu]

if we win we go to Denver or NE?

anyone know the scenarios?
Depends on the winner of the second game. If Cincinnati wins we go to Denver. If Pittsburgh wins we go to New England.

Pittsburgh is going to stomp the Bengals!

[Hammock Parties]

That bracket can change. If the Steelers win they go to Denver.

[DaFace]

Phew...I can make that one work. If it'd be Sunday, I would have missed it.

[TigeRRUppeRRcut]

If pittsburgh wins then the Chiefs (Assuming we win ) plays New England. Denver gets to play the team with the worst record

[MAG]

it will be my birthday :) Don't let me down, Chiefs.

[Chiefnj2]

Having to listen to Gruden sucks.

[Saccopoo]

That's 3:35 if you don't understand military time.

[B2chiefsfan]

That bracket can change. If the Steelers win they go to Denver.
If Chiefs/Steelers win out... Arrowhead would host the AFC Championship... kinda like that scenario...

[TribalElder]

Did anyone doubt we would get the first Saturday game?

Nothing like controlling your destiny like that, eh?

[TrebMaxx]

I keep seeing a Chiefs vs Vikings superbowl. :hmmm:

[007]

On ESPN!!Fuck

[DaFace]

Fuck

ABC too.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

I actually like Gruden and Turico.

[Ming the Merciless]

if we win we go to Denver or NE?

anyone know the scenarios?

Lowest seed plays Denver

The other team plays NE

[007]

ABC too.

This is certain?

[B2chiefsfan]

Yes... they've done this before with past games...

[TigeRRUppeRRcut]

I keep seeing a Chiefs vs Vikings superbowl. :hmmm:

More like Chiefs vs. Seahawks just to piss off every San francisco Santa Clara 49ers fan

[TigeRRUppeRRcut]

I actually like Gruden and Turico.

I can see how some think Gruden is annoying but I watched a segment that showed the preparation he puts into studying both teams before the games which is why his breakdowns are so detailed and thorough. He loves the sport and doesn't toot his own horn like Bill Walton does in NBA games.

[TLO]

CRANK THAT SOLJUA BOY

[KChiefs1]

Did anyone doubt we would get the first Saturday game?


Nope.

[KChiefs1]

I keep seeing a Chiefs vs Vikings superbowl. :hmmm:


I see a rematch too but mine is Super Bowl I.

Chiefs vs Packers would be a very satisfying conclusion.

[007]

Did anyone doubt we would get the first Saturday game?
fully expected it. And thats fine. I like Manning being back. I like that the Chiefs are now an afterthought in the media. I like being off the radar.

[Dartgod]

So, not to get too far ahead of ourselves, but if we were to win, would we also play Saturday the following week? I have to travel to Dallas for work that weekend and trying to plan my return flight home on Sunday.

[Sandy Vagina]

excellent.. Now, I can push back my drinking night to this Saturday game-time... cover my bases.. to either cry in my beer or celebrate properly. :)

[Sandy Vagina]

I actually like Gruden and Turico.

I do like Gruden, but his blathering, indiscriminate ball-washing gets old by halftime.

More like Chiefs vs. Seahawks just to piss off every San francisco Santa Clara 49ers fan


Oh shit! The bitter Alex haters in SF will freak out!

Watching the Hawks win a SB in their house? or watch Alex win a SB in their house? LOL... they'd be screwed!!!!

[petegz28]

so, Royals play their first playoff series against Houston...

Chiefs play their first playoff game against Houston...

coincidence or destiny?????

[MotherfuckerJones]

so, Royals play their first playoff series against Houston...

Chiefs play their first playoff game against Houston...

coincidence or destiny?????

I thought of that last night

[ChiliConCarnage]

Shut your franchise down now to save the agony Houston. We are coming to rape and pillage
mostly rape

[splatbass]

Best time for me. I have a prior engagement on Sunday.

[ct]

Seems odd that both AFC games are Saturday and both NFC games are Sunday. I don't recall that from previous years, maybe it has been that way before.

didn't want to put either team from the late game sunday on the "short week" saturday lineup. just so happens BOTH of them in the playoffs, covering BOTH nfc games, kinda screwed up the usual formula of one game per conference per day. not a biggie imo.

[MahiMike]

I noticed the AFC day vs NFC as well. I like it. I really like Saturday vs Sunday. Always been jealous of college fans for this.

[ChiTown]

Confirmed. Headed to the game on Saturday!

Have a great time Chi!

I think it's a good thing. No team gets the advantage of an extra day off within their own conference other than the teams earning a bye.

:cuss: you Cincinnati and San Diego for not beating Denver!
